Beautiful! And again, the far river among the hills invites me to explore more, take a look at something beyond the horizon. Amazing...

And so we see that there is more to this place than just the gardens.

It's the province of Valadon on the planet New Terra. There are numerous luminorphs that live there along with 36 trans-dimensional portals scattered about the planet.

A mixture of old masters landscape painting and surrealism. Very imaginary. Very well done.

There are seven trans-dimensional portals in the topiary arches, middle background.

In an odd way, this makes me think of "Fantasia," or "Alice in Wonderland..."

Tolkyes In reply to FeatherQuilt1988 [2013-09-24 18:41:16 +0000 UTC]

I think gardens with lots of topiary and arches are always reminiscent of "Alice in Wonderland" to a degree.
